  • Welcome to the forum Twins2003.

    I'm really sorry to hear about your dad's situation but it's good you've got your family around to support you and help look after your dad. If you feel like you need to cry, maybe you could allow yourself to do so and see how it feels. Bottling up your emotions can sometimes do more harm than good and many of our members actually find having a good cry helps them cope and releases any stress and tension they may have.

    I'm glad you've come here to speak to others who have been in a similar situation. Now that I've replied I'm sure other members will pop by soon to say hello and offer their support and advice.

    Do feel free to post as often as you like and let us know how you and your family are getting on.

    Kind Regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
